7 a.m. — Alarm goes off and I snooze, of course. I am NOT a morning person. Nor am I a Monday person.
12:20 p.m. — I like to take a late lunch, so I usually snack around noon. I put down my work and take a moment to eat an apple with some almond butter. I much prefer peanut butter, but I'm just eating this until it's gone. I keep apples at my work desk because there's so much good food around campus that I could be wasting money on. I also grab a handful of granola from the office's community snack table.2 p.m. — I take my hour break to find a comfy spot on campus.
5:30 p.m. — Get home and my plans have changed significantly. I found out someone I graduated from high school with died. I'm really upset. We had a lot of classes together. He was going to become a doctor. I can't believe it.6 p.m. — I heat up some leftovers for dinner. Mac 'n' cheese and veggies from last night. Text a few of my friends about our classmate's death. Everyone is devastated. I want more comfort food, so I eat a tiny bag of Doritos and some grapes.
4:55 p.m. — Time to go home!!! I have a plan for my evening. I've been looking for my passport all week because I need it to renew my library card, and I also have a book on hold — so first order of business is finding that. My friend also texted a few girls asking if we wanted to grab tacos , and I agree because it's worth it to spend some extra money if that means time with my friends.
9 p.m. — We get back from our walk, and the little guy falls asleep at my feet while I read my current book,. It's unreal how much I want a dog. I spent two weeks dog-sitting for a friend a couple months back, and it really solidified how happy I'd be to adopt one. Unfortunately, I love where I live, and it's really difficult to find apartments here that allow dogs.
9 a.m. — I text my friends to see if anyone can come with me, but no one seems interested, so I call T. and he happens to be off work tomorrow! I start throwing plans at him, but we're meeting tonight for the movie and decide to talk about it later. This is such an amazing start to my day! I do have a date planned for tomorrow that I'll have to cancel, but it's a second date that I wasn't all that excited about anyway. Dude is cool about rescheduling and wants to meet up tonight.
5 p.m. — Off work and time to head to the movies. The theater is at a mall on my way home, so I go there pretty regularly. 11:30 a.m. — I pick up my little sister and head to the fair. It's a bit of a drive, and when we park at the free parking lot, we have to wait about an hour for the shuttle. This really puts a wrench in my plan to make it to the concert early. I tend to get really anxious about being late, but I'm working to get over that.
9:45 p.m. — Aaaaand the show's already over! I was really hoping she'd have an opening act, but I guess she didn't. I still had a blast jumping around for an hour. The crowd was kind of hilarious. There were some diehard Kesha fans covered in glitter with crazy hairstyles, and other older people who looked like they were wandering around the casino and decided to grab a ticket to the show.
2 p.m. — The guy I'm seeing tonight texts me to let me know that he'll be on call until 9 tonight. That means he'll have to be near a computer, so we can either meet after or we can get delivery and watch a movie at his place. Sounds like a great date to me! I tell him that food and movies sound fun and I'll be there at 7.
11:30 a.m. — I scan the fridge and the pantry and decide to make some chicken alfredo pasta. Boil the noodles, cook the chicken, heat up the sauce. It's a nice, simple meal, and I feel good about the carbs because I'm about to do some physical activity. 8:30 p.m. — We park the car and walk to the restaurant to pick up our food. I get the pho special, and T. orders fried rice and chicken wings. We put it on my card, and he gives me cash.while we eat. This food is amazing, and my body is tired. I'm gonna feel this in the morning. T. lets me know that we were invited kayaking tomorrow — apparently rest is for the dead.
